This weekend on FYI Philly, we visit the neighborhood that has become a foodie's paradise... home to an astounding 13 of Philadelphia Magazine's picks for 50 best restaurants. Sushi is really on a roll; we sample the options in the city and the suburbs. We meet a Philly institution in men's fashion and learn how the paint in your home can make you happier. Saturday at 7!

We visit Townsend and other South Philly eateries to land on Philly Mag's top 50 restaurants list.

13 of the spots on Philadelphia Magazine's 50 best restaurants list are on East Passyunk Avenue. Jeannette Reyes highlights the offerings on this restaurant row.
